Grimaldi’s Grande America sinks off France




The fire stricken Italian ship, MV Grande America, owned by the Grimaldi Group, has sunk in the Bay of Biscay in water depth of 4,600 meters off the coast of France.
According to France’s Marine Nationale, the ship, a container-roro carrier, sank on Tuesday at 1526 local time about 180 nautical miles off the French coast.
Fire broke out on the Grande America on Sunday night as the ship was underway in the Bay of Biscay during a voyage from Hamburg, Germany to Casablanca, Morocco. The fire was primarily located in cargo containers in the forward portion of the ship. Several containers fell off the ship into the water while it was burning before it eventually sank on Tuesday afternoon.
All 27 crew members abandoned ship in a lifeboat and later rescued by British frigate HMS Argyll and were taken ashore to the French port of Brest.
No major injuries were reported, although several of the crew members were treated for smoke inhalation.
The 213-meter, 27,965 dwt Grande America was built in 1997.It was carrying 2000 cars and 365 containers bound for Lagos, Nigeria

OP, you're a bloody shameless liar.

That ship wasn't coming to Nigeria, had no cargo destined for Nigeria or planned to come here.

Nothing affected any Nigerian in that wreck.

Nope.. Insurance doesnt cover you if you dont have marine insurance...If it’s determined that it was caused by natural causes like tide/storm and bad weather.. OYO( On your own) cos force majaure clause would kick in

Lie lie Op.. Useless bloggers.. Just decided to read more about the ship and here's what's obtainable from Wikipedia. Worthy of note is that the ship wasn't bound for Nigeria but rather was heading to Brazil.

Cc. Mynd44, Lalasticlala Please modify the topic and correct the Op's false destination

You know there is a section you have to declare the value of the car when the forms are filled in, so depends on what you put plus shipment
